Ambergris Caye won Trip Advisor's Travelers' Choice Award for Best Island in the World...again! This is the second year in a row that they've won. Belize - Cayo too, of course - in general gets higher reviews from travellers that use Trip Advisor. Congratulations, Ambergris! Be sure and let your guests know that the jungle awaits them. "For the second year in a row, Ambergris Caye takes top honors. The beautiful Belize island offers the perfect blend of modern development and laid-back tranquility. A mangrove swamp is the eye of this white beach island, the largest in Belize, and golf carts are the main form of transportation along the sandy roads. Reef divers drool over the Belize Barrier Reef and the Blue Hole, a 400-feet deep circle of limestone that teems with angelfish, elkhorn coral, cleaner shrimp and stalactites."

Miss Earth Belize, Amber Rivero, represented Belize over the weekend in the Philippines. Her dress was symbolic of the Blue Hole, and can be seen at around the 12:30 mark, and if you look hard, you'll see her here and there throughout the video. Congratulations, Amber, for being a great Miss Earth Belize.
Lots of pictures, including some of her in the Blue Hole dress, can be found on the Belize Pageant page. https://www.facebook.com/BelizePageantUpdates
"We would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate Amber on a job well done despite many obstacles. We thank you Amber for all that you have done to place Belize on the pageant map as well as your continuous work in helping our environment. Truly a wonderful role model to us all."

With 36 percent of Belize’s landmass and 13 percent of its waters enjoying protected status, the country has long been a leader in this category.
